The Hero Disciple Is Back - Chapter 85



84. The disciple used the preemptive strike

Celestial

To humans, they are a special species. In a way, it was natural. No matter what anyone says, they are the ones who are right next to the gods. Even if they are beings lower than gods, if they are right below gods, it means that they are beings that cannot help but feel special to humans.

The absolute beauty that seemed to have been created by the gods themselves with their own hands and power was so beautiful that it was no exaggeration to call them a race of gods. That is why, even without the celestials doing anything, people would bow their heads, kneel, and bow to them in praise.

That’s why….

Celestial Elena was embarrassed.

Phew!

… I’m a celestial?

puck!

…Why am I getting beaten up all of a sudden?

“Stop! Stop hitting me! Are you crazy, how dare you hit me, a mere human?! I am a great celestial! You dare not even raise your heads…! Kuaeek!”

“As expected, when you open your mouth, you start talking nonsense. And nonsense is the best medicine.”

Sarah swung her fist without hesitation. As a warrior of Infinite Regression, she knew the celestials better than anyone else. They… .

‘They are a bunch of trash who are so absorbed in their past glory that they have completely forgotten reality, and whose eyes are not only blind, but their brains are also damaged.’

It was an honest assessment that came from the depths of my heart.

The reason she didn’t go to the heavenly realm even though she could open it… was because she knew it would be a waste of time. She had also fantasized about the heavenly realms.

I actually saw ancient records of them fighting at the forefront in the fight against the Demon King. But that was a story from the distant past.

In the first place, it was the Demon King who struck the gods and prevented them from directly descending into this world today. If the gods were like that, how could the celestials, who were inferior to them, be okay? Of course not.

In addition, the celestials… .

‘… The fertility was also at rock bottom.’

Is it really because God put so much effort into each and every one of them… or is it because he simply thought that if there were too many of them, they might rebel? (Sera suspects the latter.) The celestials did not have such a high reproductive capacity. As a result, unlike humans today who do not even have proper records of the Demon King, the celestials still have not been able to completely recover from the wounds caused by the Demon King.

Anyway, no matter what it was like in the past, the current Celestials… . could not be considered a great force. The problem is that the Celestials did not reveal this fact, and at the same time, they were boasting. This is a very good example of how the ghosts of the past, who are obsessed with past glory and cannot see the present or the future, are of no help.

Anyway, there aren’t many celestials left today… and most of them thought that even though the Demon King was resurrected, it was someone else’s business.

reason?

It’s simple.

I thought there was no way the Demon King could come over to heaven.

Just looking at the records, it seems that the Demon King has never come over to the heavens and burned everything, even though he has turned the human world into a sea of ​​fire, so since the Demon King will never be able to come over to the heavens anyway… I thought it didn’t matter if the hero couldn’t defeat the Demon King.

Their future, which was always filled with such arrogance, was a heavenly realm where no living thing could survive, a sea of ​​fire.

‘Things without brains…’

The warrior Sera couldn’t help but think that those celestials had lost their brain power. And that’s because the Demon King had killed gods in the past. What could that mean? The Demon King had been to the world where the gods were. So he couldn’t go to the celestials? If you think about it a little, you can see how much nonsense they were talking about… .

If they had a brain capable of thinking properly in the first place, it would be impossible for them to be so obsessed with the past that they cannot see reality properly… In the end, that was the extent of the celestials.

‘It would be fortunate if it ended like that…’

“You insignificant human warrior! Don’t you need the holy sword? The holy sword belongs to me…!”

Phew!

“Kugeeeeek!”

Yes, that’s right.

Those idiots had even bullied the Hero of Infinite Regression. They said they had the Holy Sword. They used the excuse of trials to bully him in every way they could, tormenting the Hero of Infinite Regression so much… When they realized that the Holy Sword couldn’t really deal much damage to the Demon King, they wanted to take the Holy Sword and cut down all the Celestials… Even now, Sera, the Hero, can’t help but grind her teeth.

In any case, the fact that Sarah’s fist flew as soon as she saw the face of the Celestials could be seen as a reflex reaction that stemmed from an instinct she couldn’t help but feel.

There is really nothing she can do….

“Gyaaah! Don’t hit me again after hitting me already! Keuk!”

It was truly unavoidable.

♧♧♧

As a Celestial Elena, it was truly unfair.

He himself came down to the human world with a truly good heart and kind mind.

The human world is doomed to perish anyway. That was the conclusion reached by the few remaining celestials. Humans, who cannot even receive their own protection and cannot expect the grace of the gods, are doomed to perish in the end.

But isn’t that too pitiful?

Even though they were safe in the heavens… . No matter how inevitable it was, the pitiful ones were pitiful. That’s why Elena said that she had to give the holy sword to the humans. While she was at it, she said that she would get some things from the humans that she had thought she would need.

Everyone said it was useless, but… . Since the holy sword couldn’t be used by the celestials anyway, it ended up going as Elena wanted. That’s why Elena confidently showed herself to the hero. She had no doubt that the hero would bow and praise her the moment she showed herself… . So she went straight to the hero.

I never thought this would be the ending that awaited me….

she is

really

any

I didn’t expect that.

‘I had no idea.’ For her, that expression was perfectly appropriate for the situation.

Who would have thought that the warrior would suddenly punch himself in the face? And even after that, he didn’t stop and dared to assault a human being. Even though he was a warrior, he was only human.

So I was going to give him a hard time… .

‘It hurts so bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It hurts like crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!’

As if the celestials had studied for a long time how to inflict pain, each time the warrior swung his sword, excruciating pain would assault her body and even her brain.

Eventually, she came to feel the fear of death, thinking that if she continued like this, she might really die. So, out of her survival instinct, she ended up doing something she had never imagined.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry! Please look at me!”

In the end, even though she was a great celestial, she was not good enough to be treated with respect by a mere human, so she ended up begging. But there was nothing she could do. Pride was something that could only be used if one was alive. When one dies, one would lose both pride and everything. Elena had been arrogant and thought she would never know this truth, but she could not help but realize it in the face of the fear of death.

‘Work. First! Let’s buy some time! After buying some time, let’s open the gates of heaven and escape!’

If I could just escape to heaven, I could end everything.

I can survive!

Elena believed that without a doubt.

But before that, it was a story that was only possible if you succeeded in escaping from that warrior who was as scary as the Demon King… no, maybe even scarier than the Demon King.

So, Elena, a celestial, put aside her pride and everything and desperately tried with all her might to create an opening.

The warrior, who had become as fearsome as, or perhaps even more fearsome than, the Demon King to the Celestial Elena, spoke as he looked down at her.

“What did I do wrong?”

“yes?”

“You said you were wrong? You said you were sorry? There must be a reason why you said that, right?”

“Huh? That. That’s… .”

Since she just blurted it out with the thought of just living and seeing, she couldn’t have thought of a specific reason. If she had even a little bit of the ability to objectively and rationally analyze the situation, she could have come up with a plausible logic and answered somehow… But unfortunately, Elena, a celestial who was always arrogant due to her past glory, could not have properly developed such objective and rational thinking skills.

“What? Are you joking with me?”

“Uh. Ah. No?”

“Then what did I do wrong?”

“That. That….”

“Uhm. Okay. I’ll help you.”

“yes?”

“If you keep repeating these things, you’ll eventually reach the answer.”

As she unclenched her fingers, Sera the Warrior smiled with a truly kind smile.

Celestial Elena felt that something was wrong… but by the time she thought so, it was already too late.

“Are you sorry? What are you sorry about?” Erena, a celestial who has fallen into a vicious cycle, has no choice but to flounder in that vicious cycle of hell.
